The Kansas Farmer says that there is
enough wool grown in Kansas to justify
the establishment of few large manufac-
turing establishments in the state. The
wool clip of Kansas is more than double
the average of the six New England states,
which has 794 wooden mills, an average
of 142 mills to the state.

Advice from the stock growing centers
of the southwest are to the effect that a
decided revival in the cattle business has
commenced. In various parts of Texas
the preparations for the spring drive have
been completed, and in some instances
have been started on the trail. The ranges
in the northwest are reported as needing
young cattle, hence the bulk of the stock
placed upon the trail will be driven or
shipped north. The stock men estimated
that there are from 500, 900 to 1900. 900
head of stock ready for the drive in diff
ferent parts of the southwest.

1t is said that car called the "spot-
ter" now goes over the New York
Central road at given periods. 1t is
provided with tank of colored fluid,
and when the wheels roll over rough
place in the track the fluid is spilled on
the spot. It is so arranged that the
track superintendent can see, while
seated on the inside of the car, view
the track and thus detect any flaws
that may exist. IF this is true it GER
tainly is a most excellent arrangement
and should be adopted at once by all
roads. It Is more sure and less expen-
sive than the ordinary track walker.
The Kansas Supreme Court has de-
cided that a woman does not change
her name by marrying, but that she re-
tains what is generally known as her
maiden name through life. Kan
sas having granted the ladies the right
to vote in municipal elections, its
Judges are only following precedent
In gallantry. 1t is only remarkable
that the Court did not go little far
ther and say that man on marrying
was bound to assume the surname of
the lady Of his choice.

Irrigating in Fresno.

The scientific use of every pos slble supply of water is one of the secrets of the extraordinary growth now manifest in Southern Cali fornia; there, the mercantile value of water is fully appreciated, and hence is developed to a point where each stream has almost as great a value as if it's drops were liquid silver. When capitalists are will ing and anxious to lay iron water pipes for miles, as those at Rosa mond on the Mojave desert, to re- claim the waste, it shows what water, land, and sunlight in com bination are worth.
 Soil that receives the water poured upon it, and allows it tc soak through and drain off too soon, Is bad for the irrigator's pur- pose. The soil that he seeks has peculiar power of retaining and giving forth the moisture. Into such soil the water seeps from each little ditch, and the moisture grad ually rises and approaches the sur face. Its capillary properties are almost perfect, and a gallon does more good here than fifty gallons on unretentive soils. Such soil fills up like a sponge, and, in places like the Fresno basin, where people formerly had to dig fifty feet or more for water, they now find it from six to eight feet from the surface. In such soil, when the surface is well cultivated, vines and trees grow all summer, and bear immense crops; even ln the hotter and drier season, delicate plants of the garden thrive under such conditions.
 On the broad Fresno plains the work of irrigation is so light Shat women who have bought their twenty'or forty acre tracts in some of the colonies enjoy guild ing the small streams from furrow into furrow, and one often sees sunbonneted figure, hoe in hand, watering the strawberry garden mucn as, in Riverside, Pomona, and Pasadena, the most accom- plished of women do not hesitate to perform out-of-door work George E.

Pneumonia and Typhoid.

A correspondent of the Balti more Sunday News says in regard to pneumonia: If you will permit me, I will give an unprofessional remedy or means of cure by which nine cases out of ten can be re- lieved in less than 24 hours, and cured in less than three days, in stead of couple of weeks time" !" Give some warm stimulating tea to help counteract the cold. Alp ply as soon as possible a poultice of hot onions to the chest and re- new the application frequently un- til relief is obtained. The onlons should be mashed and heated with little lard in vessel suitable for 1t, or take some life everlasting If it cannot be had, any common herbs may answer; boil 1t well with vinegar and make a mush with cornmeal. Apply poultice of this as hot as 1t can be borne rp- on the chest of the patient and re- peat at short intervals. The con gestion will soon be relieved, the pain will cease, the blood will flow freely in its accustomed channels, and the patient will be ont of danger in 24 hours. I would ad- wise to be given at the same time, as a valuable assistant, purgative composed of equal parts of cream of tartar and aloes. Some pills, which the family may have been accustomed to use, may answer just as well. The simple thing Is to assist nature to throw off dis ease. The same treatment will cure typhoid fever, but in this dis ease I know of many cures having been made by simply putting mashed raw onions to the soles of she feet. In high stages of the fever they will soon turn dark several applications generally gives relief. They induce precipitation, extract the fever. relieve the pain in the head and effect cure. If these simple directions are ob- served, there will be very few deaths reported in our city from pneumonia or typhoid fever.
 The Minnesota Legislature has passed law with a provision that no person can bring suit against a newspaper or other publication without giving three days notice, during which time a retraction may be published, and such re- traction must be received in evi- dence when the suit Is tried.
